Math

We wrapped up Geometry right before Spring Break and now …

… we’re starting to learn about money: coin identification, coin value, counting collections of coins. When you go to the store, allow your child to count the collection of coins needed. When your child says that they’re bored, dump out your purse and ask them to classify the coins, put them in order from greatest to least value and then count the coins.

Science

Our chicks went back to Mr. Reimers farm before Spring Break!

Check out our video here:

We finished our science unit: All About Eggs

We’re starting our science unit: How Living Things Grow & Change

Flat Stanley

Flat Stanley projects are due by the end of the school year!

Here’s our most recent Flat Stanley Project!

READING

This 2nd grader is so interested in the Titanic that he is synthesizing information from multiple leveled topic texts from our classroom library. He is a young expert and he self-taught through reading! Incredible! In Grade 2, we transition from learning how to read to reading to learn!

We are in our Fairy Tale Unit for mini-lessons and teaching points.

Even though we are in our Fair Tale unit, kiddos should still practice their non-fiction texts during reading workshop and for their reading responses at home.

Students will be able to identify the elements of a Fairy Tale and compare and contrast different versions of the same fairy tale.

Word Study

We still have our 3 differentiated word study groups.

We’re in the final haul. The 2nd grade words are going to get a little less predictable so please continue to sort the words with your kiddo at home on T, W, Th.

Writing

We’re wrapping up our Poetry unit next week!

After that, we’re going to write fractured Fairy Tales and then we’ll wrap up the year by writing All About Research books!

Memories

As a child, Ms. Danielle Huber liked to explore and be adventurous. Those attributes have followed her into adulthood. Every opportunity she gets, she is engaged in what her beloved city has to offer. One day she might take a stroll down Lincoln Parkway and the next she might have her eyes buried in a rare book at the Grosvenor Room at Central Library. She also likes to sit at the waterfront and just get lost in her thoughts or eat lunch behind the Buffalo & Erie County Historical Society. She says, “Buffalo is my playground!” She was born and raised in West Seneca, NY which is a suburb of the city. She graduated from West Seneca East Senior High School in 2001 where she proceeded to go Medaille College. After four years of hard work and dedication, she earned a Bachelors of Science in Education. Within months she got a job teaching at a Charter School, where she has made herself a home. She has had the wonderful privilege of teaching fourth and second grade. In addition, she attended Buffalo State College where she obtained a Masters Degree in Education and Columbia University's Teachers College. Her passion is history and more specifically, Buffalo History. Now that she finished her Masters, she intends on continuing her education to be able to proceed with all of her desired endeavors! Who knows, one day you may be voting for Danielle Huber for Mayor!
